PM-in-waiting Imran Khan to stay at Punjab House
The decision was taken after Law Enforcement Agencies' (LEAs) initial security report.
ISLAMABAD (Dunya News) – Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) leader Naeem-ul-Haque on Monday has revealed that PTI Chief Imran Khan will live in Chief Minister’s annexe at Punjab House after swearing-in as Prime Minister of Pakistan.
The decision was taken after Law Enforcement Agencies (LEAs) compiled its security report declaring PM-in-waiting’s Bani Gala residence and Speaker House perilous as both locations remain vulnerable to terror threats.
Khan’s Bani Gala residence and Speaker House don’t have complete boundary wall and sufficient numbers of check posts, the report revealed.
It further stated that miscreants can effortlessly target Imran Khan or any member of his family from both aforementioned locations.
Officials had also decided to meet cricketer-turned-politician and inform him about the threat level.
PTI is all set to form government in the center, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Punjab as it had taken the decisive lead by winning 116 seats against former Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif’s Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) and former President Asif Zardari’s Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) which won 64 and 43 seats, respectively.
Besides these three major parties, Muttahida Majlis-e-Amal Pakistan won 13 seats, Muttahida Qaumi Movement Pakistan six seats, Pakistan Muslim League and Balochistan Awami Party four seats each, Balochistan National Party and Grand Democratic Alliance two seats each, Awami Muslim League Pakistan, Awami National Party, Jamhoori Wattan Party and Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaniat one seat each.
